He was a man with long purple hair, strikingly handsome, wearing a warm and comforting smile.
Mirai naturally knew who he was. The man before him was also a powerful shinobi with extraordinary strength. In the original history, he had given his life for Konoha's victory in the Second Shinobi World War.
However, because of Mirai's own appearance, the turning point of the war had changed. At that time, Mirai had still been a child. The man before him had not died.
Dan Katō.
"Lord Mirai, you've finally arrived." Dan Katō smiled.
"Senior Dan."
Mirai replied. The man before him was said to be highly gifted in medical ninjutsu as well. When the establishment of the medical shinobi system had first faced opposition, he had apparently been the only one to support Tsunade.
Mirai did not find it strange that he was here. However, as he looked at Dan Katō, his gaze carried a faintly complicated meaning.
Because Dan Katō had once been Lady Tsunade's lover, he knew that the only person his seemingly unruly teacher had ever loved was Tsunade.
Because of the deaths of Dan Katō and Nawaki, Tsunade, one of the Three Legendary Shinobi, had developed Hemophobia and become unable to fight, even unable to participate in the future Third Shinobi World War.
Now, this man was standing before him once more. Mirai could not help wondering whether his teacher's feelings would finally bear fruit.
He knew this was not something he should be considering, but whenever Mirai thought of how his teacher would wander alone across the world in the coming years, he felt somewhat guilty.
As her disciple, and also as a Konoha shinobi, Mirai could not accompany his teacher...
He could only sigh inwardly. Such matters could not be forced. All Mirai could do
